Skydive Plettenberg Bay

2 corrections to the other reviews : firstly Plett does not always offer beach landings. Secondly, it is NOT within reasonable driving distance of Cape Town, it is a good 300 miles away.

This DZ has a very small aircraft (Cessna 182) which essentially caters for tandem jumps ; they allow individual jumpers as and when, but if you wish to anything more than a 2-way, forget it - too impractical. The a/c goes only to 10K, but that said, the views from it are truly breathtaking. The staff I found rather stand-offish and indifferent at first, who then became v friendly after a little encouragement. In summary, OK for a small outfit, but do not expect ANY facilities other than a packing service, and a small bar.

Great place to do Tandems, and fun jumps. Cool beach landings and always a cool veiw from plane and freefall. You have to stop here and spend a couple of days. DZO (Mike) is always helpful(he keeps your tummy full)Donavan(rigger)so your rig can be looked after if needed.Jeff will keep you smiling.

Always a great time at Plett. Worth the drive from Cape Town.
Plus a bridge or 2 on the way :-)
